re: Where can Americans travel right now

We are supposed to fly out in two weeks for a week in Cabo. I was able to book some tours but I'm wondering how the resorts/hotels were.

I stayed at the JW Marriott by San Jose. Hotels there are currently limited to 30% occupancy, so that social distancing can be easily maintained, but I'd estimate that my hotel was probably only 10% full.

They definitely took sanitation very seriously. Everyone entering the hotel has a temperature check. Everyone working there wears a mask at all times, and most of them also wear face guards. There are hand sanitizers all over, and by every elevator. One woman I talked to at the pool was a lawyer from Los Angeles, and she wasn't leaving the resort on this trip, because "I can't afford to get sick."

I definitely left the resort. I drove out to Cabo Pulmo (about 2 hours) to go snorkeling on the coral reef, but all the tours are still closed, and I couldn't even rent a mask and fins to go out from the shore. But there were still lots of nice views on the drive.

Really enjoyed the dinner I ate at Panazia in San Jose. It's a Mexican-Asian fusion seafood restaurant. There's been one in San Lucas for a dozen or so years, and the owner just opened a second one in San Jose.

But I would say that a majority of the restaurants and shops are still closed -- there's just not very many tourists there right now.
